## In short

The House of Representatives (Golaha Wakiilada) is the lower house of [Somaliland](/en/states/somaliland-1991-to-2026/)'s parliament; the House of Elders (Guurti) is the upper house ([Wikipedia, House of Representatives (Somaliland)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Representatives_(Somaliland))). It has 82 members, elected in six multi-member constituencies that match Somaliland's regions, by open-list proportional representation, for a five-year term ([Wikipedia, 2021 Somaliland parliamentary election](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Somaliland_parliamentary_election)).

The current members were elected on 31 May 2021, in a vote held together with local council elections ([Wikipedia, 2021 Somaliland parliamentary election](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Somaliland_parliamentary_election)). The House's own website lists all 82 members with their region and committee; the names below are copied from it, read on 13 November 2026, in the Somali spelling it uses ([Somaliland House of Representatives, Current members](https://somalilandparliament.net/Parliament/member/current)). Nicknames are shown in brackets, as on that site.

Somaliland declared independence in 1991. Israel recognised it on 26 December 2025; most states and the African Union regard it as part of Somalia. See [Somaliland's institutions](/en/institutions/somaliland-institutions/) and [Elections in Somaliland](/en/institutions/elections-in-somaliland/).

## Seats by party and region, 2021

Wikipedia's table of the 2021 results gives the seats each party won in each region ([Wikipedia, House of Representatives (Somaliland)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Representatives_(Somaliland))):

| Region | UCID | Kulmiye | Waddani | Seats |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| Maroodi Jeex | 5 | 8 | 7 | 20 |
| Togdheer | 4 | 4 | 7 | 15 |
| Awdal | 3 | 5 | 5 | 13 |
| Sanaag | 3 | 4 | 5 | 12 |
| Sool | 3 | 5 | 4 | 12 |
| Sahil | 3 | 4 | 3 | 10 |
| **Total** | **21** | **30** | **31** | **82** |

The House's website files 13 members under [Sanaag](/en/regions/sanaag/) and 11 under [Sool](/en/regions/sool/), while the election table gives each region 12 seats ([Somaliland House of Representatives, Current members](https://somalilandparliament.net/Parliament/member/current); [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Representatives_(Somaliland))). The website does not give most members' party, so the lists below show region and committee only.
